Presentation Transcript

  1. The NJP Landscape • NJP runs CLEAR, a statewide hotline, which screens applicants in Washington for NJP and its partners • CLEAR is open from 9:15am to 12:30pm M-F • Applicants are “screened” for financial eligibility and case priority by non- attorney screeners - helped by NJP or referred to our partners • All civil legal aid providers in WA use Legal Server • Referrals- All intake data is e-transferred using Legal Server

  2. NJP’s Goal for 2010 TIG Grant “Increase applicants’ access to services, the number of clients served on high-priority issues and NJP’s operational efficiency by developing and implementing a new on-line intake system.” high-priority issues = denial of benefits and eviction and means a callback to the client

  3. NJP’s model – A2J

  4. Branch Logic Allows for LPC and SLPC to be resolved.Leads to determination of next steps (who calls who) and correct referrals and resources

  5. Triage and Callback Information

  6. Answers to FAQ’s • All apps are reviewed by a human being so we do not ask: • Opposing party • Citizenship status • No text box for explanation of problem by design • Conflict searches are not performed on-line: • Conflict search of client name performed by screener before info is brought into NJP database • Screener can reject or allow import

  7. Legal Server View

  8. NJP Stats- First 9 mos.

  9. NJP Lessons Learned • Plan ahead! What will you do with the 9000 apps.? • Read your User Surveys (760 completed) • Put instructions everywhere: website & application • Create an instructional video: 3000 views in 11 mos. • Staff communication: Make sure all staff understand how online intake works and the goal. • Community education: Be sure your process is very clearly started in all outreach materials. • Branch logic and structuring the questions will take much longer than you imagined
